A heavy, wide sans with rounded geometry and smooth, continuous curves paired with straight-sided stems. The letterforms show open counters and generous internal space, with a notably tall x-height that keeps lowercase shapes sturdy and prominent. Curves are clean and circular in characters like O, C, and G, while diagonals in V, W, X, and Y are thick and stable, producing a solid, even texture. Terminals are generally softened rather than sharp, and the overall spacing feels built for large sizes where the broad proportions can breathe.
This font is well suited to headlines, posters, and bold branding where strong presence and quick readability are priorities. Its open shapes and tall lowercase work well for short phrases, packaging callouts, and signage that needs to remain clear at a distance, especially when set with ample spacing.
The font reads as confident and contemporary, with a friendly softness that keeps the heavy weight from feeling harsh. Its wide stance and rounded forms suggest approachability while still projecting authority and momentum, making it feel energetic and headline-ready.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a modern, approachable personality—using wide proportions, open counters, and rounded construction to stay legible and friendly while still feeling assertive in display typography.
Distinctive wide proportions make the type feel expansive, and the round dots on i/j reinforce the softened, modern tone. Numerals share the same sturdy, wide construction, supporting a consistent voice in display settings.
